So even though I remembered to bring about 4000 disposable razors and a pair of work shoes I don't need, I didn't bring nearly enough plain white undershirts. Is there a good place that sells American size XL undershirts? Also, I'm curious as to where I can find some inexplicable Konglish shirts at a cheap price. Thanks all.

Oh yes. I'm in Seoul, right off the 6 in Eungam.

Try some of the big shops in Itaewon.

Also try the cheap tourist traps there as well for your Konglish needs.

"inexplicable Konglish shirts at a cheap price"

Dongdaemun and Namdaemun markets, perhaps XL size might limit your options though.

The prices there for low to medium quality clothing in general will be better. However, depending on how big you are, you might find Itaewon is your only option. There are many stores there with signs saying "ARE YOU A BIG FAT CUNT? WELL WADDLE YOUR FAT ASS OVER HERE FOR SOME OVERPRICED GOODNESS!!!!!*"

*warning, may be a tent with leg holes

Koren brand "TRY" does xl 105, and xxl 110. 100% cotten and cheap as well. Always seems to be a sale on them if you look around. Available everywhere. They even have regular briefs and long briefs as well. I think 3 for 10,000.

Costco has their Kirkland brand plain white T-shorts and undershirts, up to western size XL. T-shirts are regular 6 for about 20000 won, but a few weeks ago there was a coupon, so got a pack of 6 for 15000 - tough to beat that.
And for mangled English, gotta second Namdaemun and Dongdaemun markets - some real gold in there.
